Check out what the smart people at Dynon have been up to in this picture that Doug took at OSH.

There's a lot of info in that picture for the discerning eye.

Default Weather and traffic down the road...

Dynon's website says they plan for weather and traffic "down the road". That will make this package complete and mighty hard to beat!

I am sure when they talk about traffic, they are talking support for displaying TIS data from a separate traffic avoidance device like the Zaon or the Gtx-330.

Oh boy. Every time I get settled on a plan, something like this comes along. Does anyone know if it does fullscreen on the syn-vis? Because that would be pretty. IIRC, the BMA EFIS-One doesn't give you the full 10" display for the 3d view, but the MGL Odyssey does. The MGL unit seems more versatile, with its headless radio options, and configurability, and the price is certainly right, but the Dynon's 3D view is amazing.

I grew up on video games and flight sims, so I'm right at home with synvis and HITS.

Default A friend

In the office showed me her new Iphone yesterday..OH my... The thing has an accelerometer in it, I bet with a little application writing you could velco the thing to the panel and go flying IMC!

This sort of stuff is just amazing these days!

Hey Stein,

I know you must have been discussing the next gen stuff with the folks at Dynon.... That being said, you most likely know about more of the details of the planned architecture than what they are willing to share with the public at this time.

So- With what you know about their plans and the latest announcements, would you concider a dual screen setup based on this new system compatible with an IFR bird?

Default It's a good time......

To be working on my wings It's looking like I won't have a reason NOT to buy Dynon when the time comes, and my CFO will appreciate that
